Interview with Dom Howard Music

  1. Q: What's your strongest skill?

  2. A: Combining experience and technical skills from the electronic and dance music world with compositional and practical training and refinement from the classical and scoring world.

  3. Q: Tell us about your studio setup.

  4. A: Small but perfectly formed, meeting all the needs of a modern production project - from the perfectly acoustically treated sound-proofed room to the choice items of outboard such as the stereo pair of Empirical Labs Distressors.

  5. Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

  6. A: Being the producer for Submotion Orchestra has been quite a ride. Mixing front-of-house for 10 years with them has had me mixing in venues all around the world from the Royal Albert Hall to a Roman amphitheatre in Croatia. Working with Ninjatune on some of their big projects has also been a real highlight for me.

  7. Q: Analog or digital and why?

  8. A: Both have strengths and weaknesses - it's all about the needs of the client and the project. If you need flexibility, digital is the way to go. If you want character and feel, then it's a lot more important to break 'out of the box'.

  9. Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

  10. A: Training in classical music since age 6, then being drawn to the electronic side of production age 14, I've now been working in the industry professionally for over 15 years.

  11. Q: How would you describe your style?

  12. A: Soulful electronic music with plenty of bass and classical/jazz influence.

  13. Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

  14. A: Cinematic Electronic Downtempo

  15. Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.

  16. A: Bespoke Production & Mix Engineering
